The next day, Jacob got ready for work. As he was about to remove his motorcycle from the back door, Jacob noticed suspicious movement from behind the window near the kitchen. The man paused for a moment and deliberately took out part of the bike's body, blocking the door. Jacob walked backwards and quickly slipped inside. He peeked through the curtains of the living room window, where he had closed the door and window tightly to leave. "I'm starting to get annoyed that my worries are happening. Looks like Diablo is starting to suspect me," Jacob murmured in a whisper as he watched Hector get into the car in a hurry. The man who was always with him, Kendrick, hurriedly drove the sedan away from the front of his house. Jacob paused for a moment, but then smiled. "Still, that's good. At least, they believe that Jacob Wyatt is a poor, useless man. My identity is safe," he said later. Jacob stepped back to take out his motorcycle. The sound of the engine from the old motorcycle echoed in
Ewald could see the pain his young master was enduring. Ewald glanced at an attendant in the coffee shop with a gesture of a wink of one left eye. The male clerk who was wiping the cup nodded in understanding. He then pressed a button under the cash register. Instantly, a curtain closed over the window where Jacob and Ewald were sitting. Jacob was stunned as the room suddenly became a little dark. Ewald then carried Jacob to enter a room that should not be entered by just anyone. Inside, Jacob was again surprised. Many fierce-faced men stared at him sharply, but then approached and carried him away. "Mr. Rodriguez's foot must be treated immediately. Call Shanum," Ewald requested. "We understand," replied a man who quickly made a phone call in the room. Ewald hurried to the car he had parked behind the coffee shop. Jacob smiled. Somehow he was so amazed by the way The Big 10 group worked that it turned out to have many places and could be called a hidden headquarters under the guis
Jacob was stunned when the group of men and women under the glass floor greeted him. Rodriguez's son returned it with a smile. The workers in the room then returned to their work after greeting him. “Me and the people down there work for you, Mr. Wyatt. So … take good care of us,” Shanum said, which made Jacob nod with a stiff face. Ewald suppressed a smile as he saw the surprised expression of Rodriguez's only son. The wooden floor again covered the glass floor below them. Shanum closed the control room door. She invited Jacob and her guests to sit in the chairs facing the screens.“Okay, I'm starting to understand, and … have you been spying my movements?” Jacob asked suspiciously. “I'm sorry if that makes you uncomfortable, Sir. It's just that we can't afford to lose Rodriguez's sole heir. Just think, 10 years of searching has yielded zero results. In fact, you can see for yourself. These CCTVs are installed in almost every corner of the city, but not a single one has captured yo
Coffee Shop. Black Hope, Rowbon town. Samuel and Morris met Diablo Torres and two of his friends, Hector and Kendrick. The two men from Kaye were shocked when they were told about Jacob, who was trusted by Torres to find out about Rodriguez's son. "Didn't you hear me wrong?" asked Samuel, glaring. "Yes. Father told me himself. I'm also forbidden from approaching Jacob again because it makes my name even worse. The last case made the stock drop drastically and father was very angry," explained Diablo irritably and took a sip of his black coffee. Samuel and Morris looked at each other in silence. Morris stared intently at Hector and Kendrick, who nodded slowly in confirmation of Diablo's statement. "What a sycophant. Jacob must have done something for Mr. Torres to trust him. What can that kid do? He's been a servant all his life. And now, a spy for Mr. Torres? Huh, I'm sure your father is just being used by him," Morris said condescendingly. "Yes, I think so too, Mr. Morris. Jaco
Jacob felt his choice to leave the Torres Company gave him plenty of time to learn new things, especially the life of a trillionaire. Sheena and Ewald, imparted new knowledge to the Rodriguez scion. There was a significant change in Jacob Wyatt. He was now the wealthy young master that the people around him expected him to be. That afternoon. Rodriguez mansion. Rowbon Town. "Sheena," Jacob called out to the beautiful woman in her room. "Yes, Mr. Wyatt," Sheena replied kindly as she noticed a significant change in Jacob, who was now more charming as he looked like a wealthy young master. "Will ... you be attending my birthday party?" asked Jacob, no longer sounding nervous when talking to her. Sheena smiled. "I'm really sorry. I won't be able to attend because of my busy theater rehearsal schedule. The performance will be next week," replied the beautiful woman with a smile. Jacob nodded slowly in response. Sheena looked uncomfortable because the handsome man seemed to expect her
As Jacob and Ewald were about to leave the room, suddenly one of the male servants came in and showed them a black box. Ewald and Jacob's brows furrowed."Before leaving, Sheena gave this to me. She said that something evil might happen during the party. In anticipation of that, Sheena asked Mr. Wyatt to wear it," the man said as he handed the box to Ewald.Ewald, who was curious, opened the box. As it turned out, the box contained a black mask with gold glitter on the edges. The mask only covered the upper half of the face. Jacob took the mask and stared at it intently."I consider this a useful anticipatory gift," he said as he put it on.Ewald smiled and then adjusted the mask to make it look just right when worn by his young master. The mask didn't even need a hook or rubber to keep it from slipping off. It was firmly attached to Jacob's face."Great. It didn't fall off at all," Jacob said admiringly."Yes. Sheena is full of surprises," Ewald said, making Jacob smile. He went back
The young ladies were stunned when Wyatt asked Gizelle to dance with him. Naturally, the blonde beauty accepted with a beaming smile. Jessica and the other young ladies who didn't get the chance quickly left the dance floor. They decided to enjoy the food that had been provided. Jacob invited his partner onto the dance floor. The other couples followed. Ewald looked closely at his young master, who did not look nervous at all, unlike when he danced with Sheena. In fact, Jacob looked so confident as he cradled Gizelle's hips with his left hand and gripped her delicate hand with his right. Slowly, the music began to accompany the young couples dancing on the floor. It looked like a royal ball because everyone was dressed to the nines. They were wearing expensive dresses and suits. Their special hairstyles, complemented by sparkling accessories and heavy make-up, made them look glamorous. Jacob watched Gizelle's face intently as he continued to take steps, inviting her to dance. Gizell
Naturally, the guests in the large room panicked. The bodyguards moved to all the entrances and exits. They wanted to make sure that the invited guests, who were allegedly involved in the disappearance of the Rodriguez family fortune, could not escape. Jacob hung the envelope he had opened back on the branch of the silver tree. The guests were kept in suspense as the atmosphere in the room was tense. “This room has been equipped with CCTV. As of today, I will be monitoring your movements throughout the country. It's because your parents, or even you, are involved in the disappearance of my family's assets,” Jacob stressed. “I swear I know nothing about your assets, Mr. Wyatt!” exclaimed a frantic black-haired young woman named Lorena. “If that's the case, investigate. I know you love Mum and Dad very much. That's why I'm not going to take your parents to court, because I'm sure they haven't all committed crimes against my family's assets,” Jacob said, to the relief of his guests.
The news that Torres had died in such a terrible way saddened some of the people who knew him. Jacob asked people who knew Torres to come to the funeral. Those who came out of respect for Wyatt chose not to speak to Diablo's father. “I hope all the grudges from the past will end now. There is no point in holding on to wounds. He is gone. Let peace be with Torres forever,” Jacob said, silencing those who had bad memories of the man. Jacob understands that neither of them can forgive the other's mistakes, and he doesn't want to force it. Rose remained silent as she watched her grandfather's coffin being buried, as did Diego. Callie was angry at Cedric for making her son hate Torres, but he felt no guilt. “I'm telling the truth. He had to know, even if he wasn't there at the time. Diego can't see my real face and that hurts a lot. Worse, he didn't know our father and couldn't feel Diablo's affection, even though I never liked the man. So it's wrong for you to blame me,” Cedric said
Jacob and Pavel ran towards the glass wall as Torres injured hisself. “Torres, stop it! You're killing yourself!” shouted Jacob as Torres' nose and mouth were bleeding from the violent impact. “Code 5! Spray!” ordered Pavel over the radio. Instantly, the top of the glass tube appeared a white gas that covered the place where Torres was locked up. Jacob was startled and looked at Pavel intently. However, the fierce-faced guard only glanced at him silently in response. Suddenly, Torres was no longer raging. He drooped limply and lay on the floor of his cage. The gas slowly faded and was sucked back in by the device attached to the roof of the cage. “Is it some kind of nerve tranquilizer gas?” Jacob asked, guessing. “Yes. It's our anticipation of special prisoners who intend to harm themselves. This is the first time Torres has done this,” Pavel replied which made Jacob take a deep breath. “Torres,” Jacob called out when he saw the old man helpless with his face covered in blood.
Rose looked at her father intently. Jacob smiled as he took little Rose's hand to move closer to him. "What prayer do you want, sweetheart?" Jacob asked, leaving the guests stunned. As everyone prayed for Rose, Jacob asked her for a prayer request. "I want papa and mama to get married," she said, leaving Rivera stunned. "It will happen, sweetheart," Jacob replied with a smile. "I want us to live together. Papa shouldn't go back to prison. There, Rose won't be able to play with you," she said, causing Jacob to stare. There was worry on the little girl's face. "Papa will never go back to that place," Jacob answered in the end which made Rose happy. Ewald and the others smiled. They just found out that Rose had been thinking about her father's fate while in prison. "Anything else?" asked Jacob as he held two of his daughter's hands gently. "I want to go to school, Papa. Rose wants to learn to dance, sing and play music," she said excitedly. "Of course. We'll find a school for
The news of Callie and Ferdinand agreeing to fill the two seats of the Mega-Power's leading businessmen group was welcomed by the community. The Fernando family, who initially refused, can now only offer their support and best wishes for one of their family members in office. The government, hearing the good news, gave their support and requested that the inauguration process be carried out immediately. That day, all members of The Big 10 gathered at the presidential palace to officiate the coronation ceremony of the two new members previously held by Obsidian and Fernando. However, Jacob, who at that time had not yet received the inauguration ceremony, took the oath. It was a solemn occasion when the president asked for their oaths of allegiance and service to the Mega-Power. Jacob, Callie, and Ferdinand took their oaths steadily, witnessed by high-ranking government officials, senior The Big 10 members, and their appointees. As the three Big 10 members who had just signed the in
In the midst of the excitement over the good news coming from the Rivera and Jacob couple, Callie suddenly came to Rachel. The girl looked confused when she was invited to a corner of the room on the outside of the mansion by Callie. Ferdinand, who was congratulating the bride-to-be, did not realize that his lover was not beside him. Elberta, Emma, and Firenze also approached Rachel as if they had hidden intentions. “Did I do something wrong?” asked Rachel anxiously. “Your mistake is failing to get Ferdinand to refuse to sit in The Big 10 in place of his father,” said Elberta, making Rachel's face tense up instantly. “Persuade your boyfriend to accept our offer to become a member of The Big 10. If you refuse, I won't come to your wedding,” Callie replied harshly, causing Rachel to stammer in response. “W-what do I say to Ferdy?” asked Rachel frantically. Instantly, the women's smiles brightened. As expected, Rachel went to her lover and persuaded him. Ferdinand looked reluctant w
The event was lively until late in the evening. Members of The Big 10 were in attendance. However, a businessman is still a businessman. In the excitement of the event, they continued to discuss business. However, Jacob's eyes were on Rivera and Rose. Rivera provided a special area for the kids to play. The girls were given a beautiful location to take pictures and chat. And the businessmen who wanted to discuss business were located in the lobby of the mansion so as not to be disturbed by the noise of the party. Vertiland mansion lobby. “We need to decide on a new member for The Big 10 soon, Wyatt. We have two vacant seats. With no strong ruler in the city, it will disrupt the city's economy. The impact is starting to be felt in Imperial and Albaros,” Riddick explained. “Have you tried contacting the mayor to see if there are any suitable candidates to replace the previous ruler?” Jacob asked. “Yes, I did. Fernando's family refused because none of their descendants were as strong
After lunch, Jacob left with Ewald to discuss things in the workroom. Rivera was understanding and allowed her lover to settle back into the old life that awaited him. Purple, Rivera and Rose are still in the room preparing.Wyatt's workroom.Jacob seemed to miss the room that held many memories. It was the room where he learned to be a businessman. Ewald looked closely at Jacob who was sitting slowly in the chair left by Ayhner which was now replaced by him.“Ewald. Can I have my old mobile phone? It's been a long time since I've held that thing. Is there... any technological developments that I should learn about?” Jacob asked which made Ewald smile.“I had to change your phone to keep up with the times, Sir,” Ewald replied as he handed Jacob a black box with a red ribbon on it.Jacob smiled as he received it. The box contained a new mobile phone that was ready to be activated, making it feel like a gift. Ewlad looked closely at Jacob who quickly adapted to the functions on his mobi
Vertiland Mansion. The helicopter landed smoothly on the tarmac. Jacob's face lit up when he saw that his house looked as well-maintained as the first time he visited it. Jacob's smile grew as he stepped out of the helicopter holding little Rose's hand. The little girl looked up at her father who didn't stop smiling as he walked down the path. “Mr. Wyatt!” someone called out which made Jacob immediately stop his steps and turn his head. “Rafael!” replied Jacob who then hugged the man. Rafael was surprised because he was hugged like a brother. Jacob then held his shoulders with a smile of happiness. “You look great. How are you?” Jacob asked, which made Rafael even confused in answering. “We'll talk later. You have to tidy yourself up. Do you see how he looks, Raffy? He'll be undergoing special treatment,” Rivera emphasized. “Yes, Madam,” replied Rafael reluctantly. “Come on, darling. We don't have much time. You need to be ready before the guests arrive,” Rivera urged as s
The news that Samara died left Torres stunned. The man could only remain silent as he watched Samara's body being removed from her cell. In a prison room containing 10 cells, only he was left alone. Who would have thought, as a result of the fight, eight other prisoners were in a coma due to severe injuries. Torres received another severe punishment in the form of isolation. He has no friends in the same room because there is only him. His prison room had no roof. If it rained heavily, he would get wet. When it was hot, he would overheat. Only during winter and snowfall was he moved to an inner prison. However, the place was no better as the walls of the prison were glass. All his movements were visible to all the guards who passed by. Torres was not allowed any interaction and was only allowed visitors once a month. However, until death claimed the people he had injured in a fight a few years ago, no one came to see him. He only realized that none of the people he had helped in t
